Durability evaluation of outdoor-exposed CLT treated with various wood presevatives using CT scans
2025 - IRG/WP 25-41035
Methods for wood preservation treatment of large materials such as Cross Laminated Timber (CLT) are limited. It is unclear which wood preservation treatment methods can effectively protect CLT from rot risk. In this study, accelerated rot tests (fungus cellar test) of CLT treated with the solvent-borne wood preservative by non-pressure treatment, named ‘deep penetration treatment’, were conduc...

Bio-Based but Toxic? The Neglected Ecotoxicity of Leachates from Wood Preservatives—A mini-review
2025 - IRG/WP 25-50403
Bio-based Wood preservatives, derived from renewable biomass, are emerging as promising alternatives to traditional synthetic wood preservatives. Research groups all around the world are studying the development of bio-based – environmentally friendly – wood preservatives and their fixation to wood finding natural compounds with very promising wood preserving potential. However, there is a ver...

Proposal for New Evaluation Criteria for Exterior Products to Achieve a Circular Economy
2025 - IRG/WP 25-50408
In recent years, the development of laws related to the promotion of wood use in buildings in Japan has led to a significant increase in wood demand, resulting in the widespread use of various wood materials in construction. In this context, the use of preservative-treated wood, selected based on the principle of using the right material in the right place, has been emphasized. However, a systemat...

Evaluation of Fungicide Transfer to Fruit Stored in Bins Constructed from Anti-Sapstain Treated Radiata Pine
2025 - IRG/WP 25-50417
This study investigates the potential transfer of fungicides to apples stored in bins made from wood treated with the anti-sapstain fungicides Antiblu® CC, containing carbendazim and chlorothalonil, and Antiblu® 375, containing oxine copper as an active ingredient. The analysis examines residues of chlorothalonil, carbendazim, and copper in apples exposed in mini-bins made from anti-sapstain tre...
